1. Always perform pre-operation checks before starting up the
compressor.
2. Never leave inflammable objects or materials near to the
compressor.
3. Always check oil level before using the compressor.

Allow to cool thoroughly after shut-down before handling.
5. Do not operate above the maximum working pressure of 115
psi (7.8 bar).
6. Avoid using the compressor with an extension cable; this
may reduce the supply voltage and make the motor overheat.

switch knob (see page 12); only switch off at the mains in case
of
emergency.
